How to get web browser history using cursor

1) declare permission

	<uses-permission android:name="com.android.browser.permission.READ_HISTORY_BOOKMARKS" />
	<uses-permission android:name="com.android.broswer.permission.WRITE_HISTORY_BOOKMARKS" />
	<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS" />

2) using cursor with specified uri to get data,

public class TestingData extends Activity {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        Cursor mCur = managedQuery(android.provider.Browser.BOOKMARKS_URI,
        		null, null, null, null
        		);
        mCur.moveToFirst();
        int index = mCur.getColumnIndex(Browser.BookmarkColumns.TITLE);
        while (mCur.isAfterLast() == false) {
        	view.append("n" + mCur.getString(index));
        	mCur.moveToNext();
        }
      
    }
}
